Harlem Public

We went to Harlem Public when they had some special menu for just one week. We went on the second day to order the “secret” menu items. For a Tuesday evening, they had a good crowd going. Inside was a bit dark, and not as big as it looks from the outside. The tables were limited, they only had a few tables left.

We put in our orders, all from the special menu. Sebastian’s Tacos, The Green Belly Burger, and Cocojito Verde.

Cocojito Verde was sweet from coconut, kind of milky, which was unexpected. It was really strong, serious cocktail! Then, the server came and told us that they don’t have Sebastian’s Tacos. It was the second day of the “secret menu week” and they claimed they already have sold out of it… really? I wonder if they were just not prepared for it? So sad…

Now, the Green Belly Burger. We told them that we will be sharing it, so the burger came pre-cut in half. The burger usually comes with a handcut French Fries, but we got Tater Tots instead. It had a thick patty, cooked just the way we ordered, and super juicy! It had thick avocado fries, which was interesting and tasty!

The server was nice and friendly. The music was kind of loud, that makes people to talk louder so that they can hear themselves. So, it got pretty loud in there. We had a nice light dinner here, if we are in the area, I would like to try other dishes from their regular menu.
